"I..."
Ethan looked up at the sky above, bewildered by what these people were saying.
They had made him doubt himself. But in the next moment, Ethan's gaze sharpened.
"If you want to die... I'll help you on your way!"
"Now..."
Hum… Ding... ding... ding...
Countless tiny stars began to light up in the sky, one by one. Each star, upon igniting, emitted a faint beam of light.
Each beam locked onto someone in Arena Three—everyone except Ethan and his companions. Dozens of dim beams converged on Iris.
"Another cheap trick!" Iris scoffed with contempt.
"Is that so?"
"Descent..."
Ethan's skyward-pointing hand suddenly clenched into a fist.
Then he pulled it downward.
Boom...
The sky trembled in response.
Above, the countless stars flared brighter—then, one by one, they detached from the sky.
They plummeted toward the earth.
Everyone caught in the light beams felt as though an immense weight had pinned them in place.
"This is bad... I'm locked on!"
